Sinsemilla, hashish, and hash oil are stronger forms of marijuana. All forms of marijuana are mind-altering. In other words, they change how the brain works. There are numerous street names for marijuana. Some are pot, herb, weed, grass, boom, Mary Jane, gangster, or chronic. There are more than 200 slang terms for marijuana. The physiological and psychological effects of marijuana on the human body and mind can be life altering. The effects of the drug differs from person to person; it depends on the user’s experience, how strong the marijuana is (how much THC it has), what the user expects to happen, how it is taken, and whether the user is using any other type of drug simultaneously. Some people feel nothing at all when they smoke marijuana.
